Dear Participants of NETTIES 2017,
The year 2016 UNESCO celebrates the 2400th anniversary from
Aristotle’s birth as “Aristotle’s Anniversary Year”. It is important to
promote intellectual and cultural heritage of the whole world and the
contribution of the Aristotelian Thinking in the Technological Evolution
and Social Progress.
Aristotle Technology Theses attributed to Aristotle:
A. Technology imitates nature, such that there is no place for
authentic human creativity.
B. Technology in supplementing and completing nature fulfils but
the inherent aims of nature.
C. There is an ontological hiatus between natural things and
artifacts such that technology cannot reproduce or change
natural things.
Thesis A was borrowed from his opponents and does not place
constraints on technological creativity concerning new products,
procedures and goods. This only explains the common sense opinion
that technology is a national enterprise directed towards goals, without
saying anything about the specific goals of technology. In technology as
well as in nature, the way is directed step-by-step by the final goal.
Thesis B Aristotle acknowledged authentic human purposes different
from direct natural aims.
For Thesis C we can say that there is not a place in entire authentic
“corpus aristotelicum” where Aristotle explicitly places constraints on
human technological creativity, beyond the trivial limitation that
technicians must start with raw natural products and can do only what
is ontologically possible.
